Organiska syror (alifatiska karboxylsyror), med grundformeln CH3(CH2)nCOOH, vilka fås genom oxidation av en metylgrupp till en alkohol, aldehyd och därefter syra. Det finns mättade, enkelomättade (med en dubbelbindning) och fleromättade (med mer än en dubbelbindning) fettsyror.
Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid. Fatty acids are saturated and unsaturated (FATTY ACIDS, UNSATURATED). (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
